“My feet were damaged by arthritis, and I have seen numerous podiatrists and purchased several different custom orthotics. After a few years of relative stability, my pain suddenly flared up and I could not walk without limping. My knees, hips and lower back were also being affected. Typically it takes a few months to see a doctor and then get new orthotics made. Hoping to find a faster solution, I searched online and saw some excellent reviews for The Shoe Doctor. Russell was kind enough to give me a brief complimentary telephone consultation so that I understood his business model and what the costs would be. I met him in person soon after and he immediately identified what the problem was, based on changes to my toes. He then measured and scanned my feet, explaining the whole time what he was doing. At the end of the appointment, I had a much clearer understanding of my condition, recommendations for more supportive shoes, and some hope of being able to walk without debilitating pain again. Best of all, he was able to get my new orthotics fabricated within a week! Two weeks later, I was able to complete a 4-mile hike with minimal discomfort. I'm extremely grateful for Russell's help and his responsiveness to my follow-up questions. I highly recommend The Shoe Doctor to anyone whose foot pain is interfering with their life and keeping them from doing what they love.“
